Further, the game medium is electronic data that can be acquired, owned, used, managed, exchanged, synthesized, strengthened, sold, discarded, and / or donated by the player in the game according to the progress of the game. The usage mode of the game medium is not limited to that specified in the present specification. By executing the quest, the player can grow the character and acquire the item.

In the present embodiment, a character card registered in the game system in advance will be described as an example of a game medium. It should be noted that the character and the card are different concepts, and in the present embodiment, the character is assigned to each card. The player character or enemy character card used in the battle has battle parameters. The parameters for battle are, for example, attack power, defense power, physical strength (or HP (hit point)), attribute (for example, fire, water, thunder, etc.), rarity (for example, normal, rare, S (super) rare, etc. SS (Double Super) Rare, SSS (Triple Super) Rare, Legend, etc.), Skill (Special Effect) Activation Rate, Attack Speed (Number of Attacks in One Turn, Number of Turns to Attack, etc.), Number of Defenses in Paired Battle Parameters and / or jobs (eg, occupation, type of soldier, etc.). Further, the card to which one character is assigned is not limited to one card, and a plurality of cards having different battle parameters may be assigned to each character. Further, the character may be provided separately from the card, or may be assigned to a game medium other than the card (for example, a figure).

Further, as a selection game, the server selects one or a plurality of character cards from a plurality of character cards set as selection targets, and grants the selected character cards to the player by associating them with the player and storing them. Run the game. First, the server accepts the designation of the number of selections from the player, and classifies the plurality of character cards set as selection targets into a plurality of groups for each specified number of selections.

It is a figure which shows an example of 1-selection game screen.

In the normal first selection game screen 610 shown in FIG. 6B, character cards other than the character cards with identification numbers 13 to 24 are reclassified into groups of 10 in the order of identification numbers, and are classified into each reclassified group. The corresponding selection button 612 is displayed. As a result, the already selected character cards with identification numbers 13 to 24 cannot be selected, and only the character cards remaining as selection targets are displayed so as to be selectable. The group including the character cards with the identification numbers 143 to 150 is also classified so that the character cards with the identification numbers 1 and 2 are included in the group so that the character cards for 10 pieces are also included.

FIG. 6 (c) shows a normal first-selection game displayed when the normal first-selection game is executed after the second-selection game is executed and a group including the character card having the identification number 13 is selected. It is a figure which shows an example of a screen.

In the normal first selection game screen 620 shown in FIG. 6C, character cards other than the character card with the identification number 13 are reclassified into groups of 10 in the order of the identification numbers, and correspond to each reclassified group. The selection button 622 is displayed. As a result, the character card having the identification number 13 that has already been selected cannot be selected, and only the character cards remaining as selection targets are displayed so that they can be selected. Similar to the normal first selection game screen 610 shown in FIG. 6B, the group including the character cards with the identification numbers 142 to 150 also includes 10 character cards. Is classified so as to include the character card with the identification number 1.

For example, the server storage unit 32 stores, as an application program, a game program or the like that advances the game and creates display data related to the result. The computer program may be installed in the terminal storage unit 22 from a computer-readable portable recording medium such as a CD-ROM or a DVD-ROM using a known setup program or the like.

Further, as data, the server storage unit 32 includes a player table shown in FIG. 8A, a card table shown in FIG. 8B, a selection table shown in FIG. 8C, and each character card set as a selection target. , Each player's image data, various image data related to the progress of the game, etc. are stored. Further, the server storage unit 32 may temporarily store temporary data related to a predetermined process.

FIG. 8A shows a player table that manages players. In the player table, for each player, the player's identification information (player ID), password, name, image data file name, owned card information, owned card identification information (used ID) used for battle, game points. , Player level, selected game execution history, selected points, player IDs of related players, and other information are stored in association with each other.

The possessed card information is associated with the identification information (ownership ID) for managing the possessed character card and the identification information (card ID) of the card for each character card owned by the player and used in the game. Be remembered. The use ID is the possession ID of the card used for the battle among the cards included in the possession card information. The game points are the cumulative value of points given to each player in the main game, and are the result of the quest (stage clear), the result of the battle (win / loss), and the result of the event (the group to which the player belongs). It is given to each player according to the order of) and the like. The player level is the level of the player in the main game, and is determined according to the game points given to the player.

The selected game execution history is a history of selected games executed according to a request from the player. For each selected game executed, information such as the number of times, the time, and the type (normally the first-selected game, the extended first-selected game, or the second-selected game) is stored. The selection point is a cumulative value of points given to each player in the selection game. A related player is another player associated with that player. Related players include, for example, other players who belong to the same group as that player, other players who have a friendship with that player, other players who rescued that player in battles with past enemy characters, and battles in the past. Other players who have played and / or other players who belong to a group that has played in the past.

FIG. 8B shows a card table for managing character cards. For each character card, the card ID, name, image data file name, character name, rarity, HP, attack power, defense power, attribute, etc. of the character card are stored in association with each other in the card table.

In the selection table, the identification information (selection ID), identification number, card ID, points, group identification information (group ID), etc. in the selection game are stored in association with each character card set as the selection target. .. The points are points given to the player together with the character card when the character card is given to the player in the selected game. The group ID is identification information assigned to the group in which the character card is classified.

2.2.1. Configuration of Server Processing Unit 33 The server processing unit 33 includes a progress control unit 331, an output control unit 332, a main game execution unit 333, an association unit 334, and the like. Each of these units is a functional module realized by a program executed by the processor included in the server processing unit 33. Alternatively, each of these parts may be mounted on the server 3 as firmware.

The progress control unit 331 controls the start and progress of the game, and appropriately instructs the output control unit 332, the main game execution unit 333, and the association unit 334 to execute the process. The progress control unit 331 exchanges necessary data with the mobile terminal 2 via the server communication unit 31.

When the request for each screen described with reference to FIGS. 4 (a) to 6 (c) is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 has a button for receiving an instruction from the player and character information to be notified to the player. , Instruct each part to create display data for displaying an image or the like in a layout corresponding to the screen, and transmit the data to the mobile terminal 2. Then, when any button is pressed on the screen displayed on the mobile terminal 2 and a request for the next screen corresponding to the button is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 similarly displays the next screen. Instruct each part to create data, and transmit the data to the mobile terminal 2.

In particular, when the player performs an operation of starting a game using the mobile terminal 2 or an operation of transitioning to the home screen and a home screen request corresponding to the operation is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 outputs the output. The control unit 332 is instructed to create display data for displaying the home screen 400. Then, the progress control unit 331 transmits the display data created by the output control unit 332 to the mobile terminal 2.

Further, when the main game button 401 is pressed on the home screen 400 displayed on the mobile terminal 2 and the corresponding main game request is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 sends the main game to the main game execution unit 333. Instruct to execute. Then, the progress control unit 331 transmits the display data for displaying the screen for executing the main game created by the main game execution unit 333 to the mobile terminal 2.

Further, when the first selection game button 402 or the second selection game button 403 is pressed on the home screen 400 displayed on the mobile terminal 2, and the corresponding selection game screen request is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 Instructs the output control unit 332 to create display data for displaying the corresponding selected game screen. The selection game screen request includes identification information (player ID) of the player, selection game type (whether it is the first selection game or the second selection game), and the like. Corresponding selection game screens are usually the first selection game screen 410, the extended first selection game screen 420, the second selection game screens 500 and 510, and the like. Then, the progress control unit 331 transmits the display data created by the output control unit 332 to the mobile terminal 2.

Further, when the selection button 412, 422 or 502 is pressed on each selection game screen displayed on the mobile terminal 2 and the corresponding selection request is received from the mobile terminal 2, the progress control unit 331 selects the association unit 334. Instructs the execution of processing. The selection request includes the player ID of the player, the group ID of the selected group, and the like. Then, the progress control unit 331 transmits the display data for displaying the selection result screen 430 created by the association unit 334 to the mobile terminal 2.

When the progress control unit 331 instructs the output control unit 332 to create the display data of the home screen, the output control unit 332 creates the display data for displaying the home screen 400 and passes the created display data to the progress control unit 331.

Further, the output control unit 332 executes the classification process when the progress control unit 331 instructs the creation of the display data of the selection game screen request. Then, the output control unit 332 creates display data for displaying the normal first selection game screen 410, the extended first selection game screen 420, or the second selection game screens 500 and 510, and controls the progress of the created display data. Hand over to unit 331.

In the classification process, the output control unit 332 specifies the selected game type included in the selected game screen request received from the mobile terminal 2, and specifies the number of selections specified by the player based on the specified selected game type. When the specified selected game type is the first selected game, the output control unit 332 determines whether or not the above-mentioned predetermined conditions are satisfied. When the predetermined condition is not satisfied, the output control unit 332 usually determines the selection game to be executed as the first selection game, and specifies the number of selections to the first predetermined number (10). On the other hand, when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the output control unit 332 determines the selection game to be executed as the extended first selection game, and specifies the number of selections to the second predetermined number (12). When the specified selected game type is the second selected game, the output control unit 332 determines the selected game to be executed as the second selected game, and specifies the number of selections to 1.

Next, the output control unit 332 identifies the player ID included in the selected game screen request received from the mobile terminal 2, and when the selected game was previously executed by the player from the selected game execution history in the player table. Specifies the number of selections specified in. The output control unit 332 determines whether or not the number of selections specified last time is the same as the number of selections specified this time. If the number of selections specified last time is the same as the number of selections specified this time, the output control unit 332 does not reclassify the character cards stored as selection targets. In that case, the output control unit 332 creates the selected game screen for the current selected game by changing at least a part of the selected game screen created when the selected game was executed last time.

The output control unit 332, for example, deletes the selection button corresponding to the group selected and deleted in the previous selection game from the selection game screen created when the selection game was executed last time. Create a selection game screen for your selection game. The output control unit 332 does not change the arrangement of the selection buttons other than the selection buttons corresponding to the deleted group on the selection game screen. Alternatively, the output control unit 332 may rearrange the selection buttons other than the selection buttons corresponding to the deleted groups so as to be packed. Further, the output control unit 332 may gray out the selection button corresponding to the deleted group so that the selection cannot be performed. Further, the output control unit 332 replaces the selection button corresponding to the deleted group with the selection button corresponding to the group including the character card having the maximum (last) identification number among the groups that have not been selected yet. You may. As a result, the output control unit 332 can reduce the processing load of the classification process and the process of creating the selected game screen.

On the other hand, when the number of selections specified last time is different from the number of selections specified this time, the output control unit 332 specifies the character cards stored as selection targets in the order of the identification numbers assigned to each character card ( Classify (reclassify) according to the number of selections (redesignated). Similarly, when the selection game is executed for the first time, the output control unit 332 selects the character cards stored as selection targets in the order of the identification numbers assigned to each character card for each specified number of selections. Classify into. The output control unit 332 extracts a specified number of selected character cards in ascending order of identification number from the character cards stored as selection targets in the player's selection table, and classifies them into one group. In the selection table, the output control unit 332 stores the group ID of the classified group in association with the character card classified into the group.

The output control unit 332 classifies all the character cards stored as selection targets in the selection table. If the number of character cards included in the group of character cards last extracted from the selection table is less than the number of selections, the output control unit 332 further increases the number of character cards for the shortage in ascending order of identification number from the selection table. Is extracted and included in the group. Alternatively, the output control unit 332 includes the character cards included in the group adjacent to the group in which the number of character cards is insufficient (for example, the group classified immediately before) in the group in which the number of character cards is insufficient. You may not. In this way, when the number of character cards included in the group is insufficient, the output control unit 332 includes the character cards already assigned to the specific group in duplicate. As a result, the output control unit 332 can include the same number of character cards in all groups, and can prevent unfairness from occurring in the character cards included between the groups.

The output control unit 332 may classify the character cards stored as selection targets by another method instead of classifying them according to the order of the identification numbers assigned to each character card. For example, the output control unit 332 may classify each character card in a random order.

Further, the output control unit 332 may change the character card included in the specific group to the character card included in the other group according to the designation from the player. For example, the output control unit 332 receives from the mobile terminal 2 the designation of the group ID of the change source group and the card ID of the character card, and the group ID of the change destination group and the card ID of the character card. The output control unit 332 exchanges the character cards included in each group by exchanging the group ID stored in association with each designated card ID in the selection table. As a result, the player can change the character cards in the group, and can select the group after collecting the character cards of the desired number into one group, which is the taste of the selection game. It is possible to improve the sex.

Further, the output control unit 332 may not accept the designation of either the first selection game or the second selection game from the player, but may accept the designation of an arbitrary number of selections. In that case, the output control unit 332 may determine the range of the number of selections that the player can specify according to at least one of the number of times the player has executed the selection game or the time interval. For example, the output control unit 332 specifies the number of times the player has executed the selected game from the selection execution history of the player table, and specifies the number of selections of the predetermined number or more only when the specified number of times is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold value. accept. The number of executions of the selection game used to determine the range of the number of selections that the player can specify may be limited to the number of executions of a specific game (for example, the first selection game). Alternatively, the output control unit 332 identifies the time when the player executed the last selected game from the selection execution history of the player table, and when the elapsed time from the time when the last selected game was executed to the present is less than a predetermined time. As long as it accepts the specification of the number of selections more than the predetermined number. This makes it possible to increase the variation of the selected game and diversify the selected game.

Further, the output control unit 332 may determine the range of the number of selections that can be specified by the player according to the game points of the player, the player level, or the number of related players. For example, the output control unit 332 specifies the game point or player level of the player from the player table, and accepts the designation of a predetermined number or more of selections only when the game point or player level is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold value. Since the player frequently tries to execute the main game in order to increase the range of the number of selections, it is possible to activate the main game. Alternatively, the output control unit 332 specifies the number of related players related to the player from the player table, and accepts the designation of the predetermined number or more of the selection number only when the number of the related players is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold value. Since the player tries to increase the number of related players in order to increase the range of the selection number, it is possible to activate the communication between the players.

Further, the server 3 may manage some character cards separately instead of managing all the character cards set as selection targets in the same manner. For example, the server 3 classifies the character cards set as selection targets into two groups, a first group and a second group, and stores them in the server storage unit 32. The output control unit 332 sets the character cards included in each group as the first group when the selection game designated by the player is usually the first selection game, that is, when the number of selections specified is equal to or less than the first predetermined number. Select from. On the other hand, when the selection game designated to the player is the extended first selection game, that is, when the designated number of selections exceeds the first predetermined number, the output control unit 332 among the character cards included in each group. A first predetermined number of character cards are selected from the first group, and other character cards are selected from the second group.

By classifying and managing the character cards set as selection targets into a plurality of groups, the selection probability of the character card that is the main feature of the normal first selection game and the extended first selection game can be made different, or the extended first selection game can be used. It is possible to include a character card that is a specific feature only in the selected game. The featured character card is a character card whose parameters are set to a higher value than other character cards, for example, a character card whose rarity is set to the highest value. As a result, the player frequently executes the selection game to execute the extended first-selection game in order to increase the selection probability of the featured character card or acquire a specific character card. It is possible to activate the selection game.

The output control unit 332 identifies the character cards classified (or reclassified) into each group based on the group ID stored in the selection table, and displays each classified (or reclassified) group in a selectable manner. Select to create Display data for displaying the game screen.

The output control unit 332 may display a hint of a group including a character card as a centerpiece on the selection game screen when a predetermined condition is satisfied. For example, the output control unit 332 displays hints of a group including a character card as a centerpiece according to at least one of the number of times the player has executed the selected game or the time interval. The output control unit 332 becomes a centerpiece when the number of times the player has executed the selected game is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, or when the elapsed time from the time when the player has executed the selected game last time to the present is less than the predetermined time. Show hints for groups that contain character cards. As a result, the player can select a group based on the hint, and the interest of the selection game can be improved.

Alternatively, the output control unit 332 may display hints of a group including a character card that is a feature, depending on the progress of the main game. For example, when the game points given in the main game exceed a predetermined value, the output control unit 332 displays a hint of a group including a character card as a centerpiece. Alternatively, the output control unit 332 may display hints of a group including a character card that is a centerpiece, depending on the granting status of the game medium or the like. For example, when a specific character card is given to the player, or when a predetermined number or more of character cards having a rarity of a predetermined value or less are given to the player, the output control unit 332 becomes a featured character card. Show hints for included groups. This makes it possible to increase the variation of the selected game and diversify the selected game.

The output control unit 332 displays the display mode of the selection button of the group including the character card having the setting information common to the main character card so as to be different from the display mode of the other selection buttons. The output control unit 332 displays, for example, a selection button of a group including a character card having an identification number whose identification number of the character card which is the centerpiece and a value of a specific digit match, in a color different from that of other selection buttons. Or display it larger than other selection buttons. This makes it easier for the player to visually determine the group that is likely to include the character card that is the centerpiece, and it is possible to improve the convenience of the player.

The output control unit 332 may stepwise change the mode of the selection button of the group according to the number of character cards included in the group and having the setting information common to the character cards that are the centerpieces. The output control unit 332 displays, for example, a darker density as the selection button of a group containing a large number of character cards having an identification number in which the identification number of the character card that is the centerpiece and the value of a specific digit match. Display large. Alternatively, the output control unit 332 may stepwise change the mode of the selection button of the group according to the number of setting information common to the character card that is the centerpiece of the character cards included in the group. For example, the output control unit 332 displays the identification number of the character card, which is the centerpiece, and the selection button of the group including the character card having the identification number having a large number of digits having the same value, so that the density is darker or larger. indicate. In this case as well, the player can easily visually determine the group that is likely to include the character card that is the centerpiece, and the convenience of the player can be improved.

Further, the output control unit 332 may display the status of another player different from the player with the player ID included in the selection game screen request. For example, the output control unit 332 displays a list of information such as the time when the featured character card is given to another player and the identification number of the character card. As a result, each player can confirm the situation of other players, and can activate communication between the players.

Further, the output control unit 332 does not reclassify the character cards when the number of selections is specified by the player, but the association unit 334 assigns the selected character cards to the player and selects them, as will be described later. The character card may be reclassified when it is deleted from the target. In that case, the output control unit 332 classifies the character cards according to the number of selections that can be specified by the player. In this case, since the character cards are already classified when the user specifies the number of selections, it is possible to improve the responsiveness to the user's operation.

In this way, when the number of selections is specified (or redesignated) by the player, the output control unit 332 selects a plurality of character cards stored as selection targets for each specified (or redesignated) number of selections. Create display data that classifies (or reclassifies) into multiple groups and displays each classified (or reclassified) group in a selectable manner.

When the progress control unit 331 instructs the execution of the main game, the main game execution unit 333 creates display data for displaying the screen for executing the main game, and passes the created display data to the progress control unit 331. .. After that, the main game is executed according to the operation by the player on the screen for executing the main game displayed on the mobile terminal 2. In the main game, the main game execution unit 333 executes a battle or the like using a card or the like related to the use ID stored in the player table. Further, the main game execution unit 333 updates the game points and the player level in the player table according to the result, grants the game points to the player, and raises the player level.

When the progress control unit 331 instructs the association unit 334 to execute the selection process, the association unit 334 specifies the player ID and the group ID included in the selection request, and stores the player ID and the group ID included in the selection request in association with the specified group ID in the player's selection table. Identify the card ID. The association unit 334 stores the character cards included in the group specified by the player in association with the player by adding the specified card ID to the owned card information associated with the specified player ID in the player table. , Give to the player. Further, the association unit 334 deletes the character card given to the player from the selection target by deleting each information corresponding to the specified card ID in the selection table. In the selection table, the association unit 334 stores the state of each character card (whether it has been given or not given) in association with each card ID, and sets the state of the selected character card to be given. By changing, the character card given to the player may be deleted from the selection target.

The association unit 334 simply deletes the character card given to the player in the selection table. When the number of selections is redesignated by the player from the next time onward, the output control unit 332 skips the identification numbers of the character cards remaining as selection targets and the identification numbers of the character cards deleted from the selection targets, in the order of the identification numbers. Reclassify into multiple groups according to the specified number of selections. Since the identification number assigned to each character card does not change, the player can repeat the selection game while confirming on the selection game screen that the assigned character card does not remain as a selection target, and is fair in the selection game. The sex can be guaranteed.

The association unit 334 may assign the identification number of one or more character cards deleted from the selection target to the specific character card remaining as the selection target in the selection table. For example, the association unit 334 assigns the identification number of the character card deleted from the selection target in order from the character card having the maximum (last) identification number. For example, when a group of characters having an identification number of 11 to 20 is selected and deleted from the selection target in a state where a character card having an identification number of 1 to 100 exists as a selection target, identification of 91 to 100 is performed. The identification numbers of the character cards having the numbers are assigned to 11 to 20, respectively.

In that case, when the number of selections is redesignated by the player from the next time onward, the output control unit 332 will use a plurality of character cards remaining as selection targets for each of the specified number of selections in the order of the identification numbers. Reclassify into groups. In this case, since the identification numbers assigned to each character card are always continuous, it is possible to speed up the classification process.

In addition, the association unit 334 determines in the selection table whether or not points are associated with the character cards included in the group designated by the player, that is, the character cards given to the player. When points are associated with a character card included in a group specified by a player, the association unit 334 gives the player points by adding the points to the selected points associated with the player in the player table. Give. Then, the association unit 334 stores the card ID of the predetermined character card in the possession card information associated with the player ID of the player in the player table according to the selection point stored in association with the player. Therefore, a predetermined character card is stored in association with the player and given to the player. Since the player tries to execute the selected game in order to acquire a predetermined character card, the selected game can be further activated.

Further, the association unit 334 sets a winning number in advance for the identification number assigned to each character card, and when the identification number of the character card included in the group designated by the player matches the winning number, the association unit 334 sets the winning number in advance. A predetermined character card may be given to the player. Alternatively, the association unit 334 sets the winning number and the order for the identification number assigned to each character card in advance, and the character card having the identification number matching the winning number is selected according to the preset order. Only in that case, a predetermined character card may be given to the player. Since the player tries to execute the selection game in order to acquire the character card, the selection game can be further activated.

The association unit 334 creates display data for displaying the selection result screen 430 indicating the selection result, and passes the created display data to the progress control unit 331.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of an operation sequence related to the selected game processing of the game system 1. This operation sequence collaborates with each element of the mobile terminal 2 and the server 3 mainly by the terminal processing unit 25 and the server processing unit 33 based on the programs stored in the terminal storage unit 22 and the server storage unit 32 in advance. Is executed.

First, when the player presses the first selection game button 402 or the second selection game button 403 using the operation unit 23 while the home screen 400 is displayed on the display unit 24 of the mobile terminal 2, the mobile terminal 2 is viewed. The execution unit 251 transmits the selected game screen request to the server 3 via the terminal communication unit 21 (step S101). When the progress control unit 331 of the server 3 receives the selection game screen request from the mobile terminal 2, the output control unit 332 executes the classification process (step S102). The details of the classification process will be described later. Next, the output control unit 332 creates display data for displaying the selection game screen that selectively displays each group classified (or reclassified) in the classification process (step S103). Next, the progress control unit 331 transmits the display data created by the output control unit 332 to the mobile terminal 2 (step S104). When the display data is received from the server 3 via the terminal communication unit 21, the browsing execution unit 251 of the mobile terminal 2 creates drawing data based on the received display data and causes the display unit 24 to display the selected game screen. (Step S105).

Next, when the player presses the selection button using the operation unit 23 while the selection game screen is displayed on the display unit 24 of the mobile terminal 2, the browsing execution unit 251 of the mobile terminal 2 sends a selection request to the terminal communication. It is transmitted to the server 3 via the unit 21 (step S106). When the progress control unit 331 of the server 3 receives the selection request from the mobile terminal 2, the association unit 334 grants the player a character card included in the group designated by the player and deletes the character card from the selection target (step S107). .. Next, the association unit 334 creates display data for displaying the selection result screen 430 showing the selection result (step S108). Next, the progress control unit 331 transmits the display data created by the association unit 334 to the mobile terminal 2 (step S109). When the display data is received from the server 3 via the terminal communication unit 21, the browsing execution unit 251 of the mobile terminal 2 creates drawing data based on the received display data and displays the selection result screen 430 on the display unit 24. (Step S110). This completes the operation sequence related to the selected game process.

FIG. 10 shows an operation flow of the classification process by the output control unit 332. The classification process shown in FIG. 10 is executed in step S102 of FIG.

First, the output control unit 332 specifies the number of selections specified by the player from the selection game types included in the selection game screen request (step S201). Next, the output control unit 332 determines whether or not the number of selections specified last time is the same as the number of selections specified this time (step S202). When the number of selections specified last time is the same as the number of selections specified this time, the output control unit 332 ends a series of steps without reclassifying the character cards stored as selection targets.

On the other hand, when the number of selections specified last time is different from the number of selections specified this time, the output control unit 332 increases the number of selections specified in ascending order of the identification number from the character cards stored as selection targets in the selection table. The character card is extracted (step S203). Next, the output control unit 332 classifies the extracted character cards into one group (step S204). Next, the output control unit 332 determines whether or not all the character cards stored as selection targets in the selection table have been extracted (step S205). If all the character cards stored as selection targets in the selection table have not been extracted yet, the output control unit 332 returns the process to step S203 and repeats the processes of steps S203 to S205. On the other hand, when all the character cards stored as selection targets in the selection table are extracted, the output control unit 332 ends a series of steps.

As described above, when the server 3 accepts the designation of the character card selection from the player, the server 3 simultaneously accepts the designation of the number of selections. The player can select a character card while changing the number of selections according to the probability that the target character card is selected, his own prediction, or the like. The player can flexibly execute the selection game without selecting character cards one by one or being forced to select a number of character cards exceeding a desired number. Therefore, the server 3 can maintain the motivation of the player while improving the convenience of the player.

The present invention is not limited to the present embodiment. For example, in the present embodiment, the server 3 has described an example in which a player executes a selection game in which a specific group is selected. However, the selection game may be any form of game as long as it is a game in which a group is selected. There may be. For example, the selection game may be a game in which a group is selected by a random lottery by the server 3.

Further, in the present embodiment, an example in which the selected game medium is given to the player has been described, but the selected game medium does not necessarily have to be given to the player as long as it is stored in association with the player. For example, the selected game medium may be set so that the player can only view it or provide it to other players.

Further, each function of the server processing unit 33 described above may be executed by the terminal processing unit 25 of the mobile terminal 2. In this case, if the player table, the card table, and the selection table are stored in the terminal storage unit 22, it is not necessary to communicate with the server 3 each time the processing is performed, and the above function can be realized only by the mobile terminal 2. Is. Further, the game executed on the mobile terminal 2 may be a hybrid game in which the server 3 and the mobile terminal 2 each play a part of the processing. In that case, for example, each screen related to the progress of the game is a web display displayed on the mobile terminal 2 based on the display data generated by the server 3, and other menu screens and the like are native applications installed on the mobile terminal 2. The native display is displayed by.

It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, substitutions and modifications can be made to this without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
